[mpich-discuss] mpi assertion error

Fri Jun 28 10:47:53 CDT 2013

Probably you should try to change the value realDim=16384 to something more at your machine level, such as 1024... So that you won't experiment a hung :)
My purpose is no to use an already done fft algorithm, but just to try how it is to write one starting from a serial version.. I know that exists 10000kk times better algorithms..

Yes, I can tell your new to programming.  Stop reading K&R C as a
style guide :-)

Your program hung my virtual machine so I cannot help you.  I
recommend you use FFTW instead of rolling your own FFTs.

Best,

Jeff
